This book considers how we encounter and make meaning from
extinction in diverse settings and cultures. It brings together an
international and interdisciplinary range of scholars to consider
how extinction is memorialised in museums and cultural
institutions, through monuments, in literature and art, through
public acts of ritual and protest, and in everyday practices. In an
era in which species are becoming extinct at an unprecedented rate,
we must find new ways to engage critically, creatively, and
courageously with species loss. Extinction and Memorial Culture:
Reckoning with Species Loss in the Anthropocene develops the
conceptual tools to think in complex ways about extinctions and
their aftermath, along with providing new insights into
commemorating and mourning more-than-human lives. This book will be
of great interest to students and scholars of the environmental
humanities, extinction studies, memorial culture, and the
Anthropocene.
